Inoculant plant growth-promoting microorganisms enhance utilisation of urea-N and grain yield of paddy rice in southern Vietnam (2009, background): “However, the efficiency of fertiliser N use can be increased by reducing the losses by several means including the application of inoculant plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteria [15,16,27].”
Biofertilizers function as key player in sustainable agriculture by improving soil fertility, plant tolerance and crop productivity (2014, background): “Similarly, in rice, addition of Azotobacter, Azospirillum and Rhizobium promotes the physiology and improves the root morphology [23].”
